Question

A man who served 11 years in prison after being wrongly convicted of murdering his wife was officially cleared yesterday, walking free from Jingshan County People's Court—the same body that sentenced him to a 15?year jail term in 1998—as over 2000 local residents cheered.

“Police and other law enforcers made the errors,”39?year?old She Xianglin told China Daily, “I believe the law will punish them and give me a just result.”?

The original conviction came based on a confession which She said was extracted under police torture and the misidentification of a still-unknown woman's body.?

“The provincial Hubei government has sent a team of police, procurators and high people's court officials to investigate the case,” a spokesperson for the Jingmen government, which administrates Jingshan County, said yesterday.?

The miscarriage of justice only came to light when Shen's wife, Zhang Zaiyu, resurfaced late last month after being thought missing for 11 years.?

This was despite at least five letters from Zhang to her brother over the last two years, which he said he didn't report to police because he thought they were a hoax.?

Zhang disappeared in January 1994 from Yanmenkou Township, and 3 months later a body was found in a pond that her relatives positively identified.?

Local police arrested Shen for murder in April 1994,although questions had been raised about discrepancies between the features and clothes of the body and Zhang. Confirmation through DNA testing had not been attempted.?

　　Zhang Chengmao, Shen's lawyer, said yesterday he would seek State compensation “but we have not reached a figure yet”.?

When asked about compensation, Shen said, “My mother, who died from the stress of continually appealing, cannot be bought. Eleven years of freedom cannot be bought. Schooling of my daughter that was stopped because of poverty cannot be bought.”?

As for his wife, the man said he did not hate her at all. “If she had not reappeared, maybe I would have been wronged for life,” he said.?

He also said he did not plan to sue Zhang for bigamy, though she had remarried in Shandong Province without divorcing him.?

Why did She Xianglin served 11 years in prison?

A. Because She Xianglin was convicted of murdering his wife.?

B. Because the Police and other law enforcers made the errors.?

C. Because through DNA testing the dead woman was his wife.?

D. Because her wife was missing.

Which of the following is NOT true??

A. The miscarriage of justice only came to light when Shen's wife reappeared.?

B. The man said he did not hate her at all.?

C. Zhang Zaiyu wrote at least five letters to her brother over the last two years to hoax him.?

D. She Xianglin's mother died from the stress of continually appealing.

We can infer from the passage _______.?

A. She Xianglin will get State compensation?

B. She Xianglin's daughter dropped out of school because of poverty?

C. She Xianglin stayed in prison for 11 years?

D. who murdered the woman is known to all

Answer 1

【小題1】B

【小題2】C

【小題3】A

【小題4】B

解析:

【小題1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。A項錯誤，根據(jù)第一段第一句中“after being wrongly convicted of murdering his wife”可知B項正確，根據(jù)第二段第一句知佘向林是由于公安機關(guān)和法律部門的過失才導(dǎo)致被監(jiān)禁11年。C項錯誤，第八段最后一句說明，沒有進行DNA檢測。D項錯誤，妻子的失蹤和佘向林被監(jiān)禁沒有直接關(guān)系。此項迷惑性較強。?

【小題2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。A項是事實。根據(jù)第五段內(nèi)容可知，妻子的重新出現(xiàn)才使誤判真相大白。B項是事實。由倒數(shù)第三段中“My mother, who died from the stress of continually appealing, cannot be bought.”一句可知D項是事實。由第六段內(nèi)容可知C項錯誤。?

【小題3】推理判斷題。佘向林的律師說要政府給予賠償，通過分析全文可知佘向林無罪，因此我們推測他會得到政府賠償。B、C兩個選項是客觀事實，不是推測。D項錯誤，文章沒有說明是誰謀殺了那位女士。?

【小題4】　詞義推斷題。通過下面一句“...walking free from Jingshan County People's Court—the same...”可知“宣告無罪”。
